Rollo was born July 14, 1936, in Kiester Township, Faribault County, Minn., son of Edward and Hannah (Lura) Kiihn. His mother said it was the hottest day of the year. Rollo went to Bricelyn High School and graduated, the class of 1954, after which he enlisted in the Army. When Rollo returned home, he started farming with his father. While farming, he delivered motor homes, traveling to every state in the country.

In 1990, Rollo was united in marriage to Audrey Pierce at the Little Brown Church in Nashua, Iowa July 14th, which was both of their birthdays and then became their anniversary. With this union, they became a family.

Rollo and Audrey traveled a lot, they especially enjoyed going on cruises and visiting Hawaii. Rollo was a big fan of Minnesota sports teams and loved watching his step-grandchildren play sports when he was able.

Rollo was preceded in death by his parents; stepdaughter-in-law Shawn Pierce; and step-granddaughter Alisha Marie Pierce.

Rollo is survived by his wife Audrey of Bricelyn, Minn.; stepchildren Scott Pierce of Owatonna, Minn., Jeff “Curly” (Tanya) Pierce of Chaska, Minn., and Jenny (Chris) Erickson of St. Paul, Minn.; step grandchildren Ashley Pierce, Shawnda (Matt) Geiselhart, Jackson Pierce, Bennet Pierce, Prescott Pierce, Johnna Pierce, Francis Pierce, Ingrid Erickson, and Elsa Erickson; step great-grandchildren Pierce and Bode Geiselhart; brother Ross (Phyllis) Kiihn of St. Paul, Minn.; two nieces Melanie Kiihn, and Stephanie (Robert) Aschenbrenner.

Rollo had a great sense of humor and will be dearly missed by family and friends.
